t bend - Mandrel Bending Machines
Right/Left Bending with CNC-Control
High tech bending freedom without any limitations- Industry 4.0 / t project
- Accurate, great performance and fast
- Durable, also in multi-shift operations
transfluid® t bend DB CNC-R/L
ECONOMICAL - AUTOMATED - PROCESSES
With our clockwise/counterclockwise bending machines the most complex bends become reality with great accuracy.
The Bending head of our fully electric CNC R/L series can be positioned horizontally and vertically, including 360° rotation axis for a change of bending direction (right- or left-hand).
For better efficiency. The electric axes can be programmed in synchronicity to give optimum cycle times.Tools for bending on multiple levels with automated tool change makes it possible to achieve various radii and the most complex geometries on tubes.
Our robust machine construction means customers have come to expect decades of heavy use. This machine is supplied with an easy-to-use Siemens CNC control system, which utilizes an intuitive program in a Windows based operating system set up for networking.

Your benefits at a glance
-
THE 360° BENDING HEAD
The Bending head of our fully electric CNC R/L series can be positioned horizontally and vertically, including 360° rotation axis for a change of bending direction (right- or left-hand).
-
MULTILEVEL BENDING
Each bending head can be equipped with minimum two tool sets, e.g. with different bending radii or form-clamps, max. changing height for standard machine is 60 mm.
Bending tools for tubes with already formed tube ends.
-
FREE BENDING DIRECTION
Positioning of bending head via combined diagonal and rotation axis, right-and-left-hand bending in one operation.
-
BENDING MANDRELS
Bending mandrels in different contours or materials.
-
FULLY ELECTRIC
100% electric drive of all 11 axes. Compared to hydraulic machines, energy savings of up to 50% can be achieved.
-
CONTROL UNIT
The control unit is equipped with high-quality electronic components from leading suppliers. This ensures a long service life and a reliable supply of spare parts over a long period of time.
-
BOOSTING FUNCTION & PUSH BENDING
The collet is equipped with a powerful motor for push bending. Especially when bending thin-walled materials and very small bend radii this feature can improve the bend quality, and the wall thinning can be reduced.
Special tooling is available for push bending large radii.
Production samples
COST-EFFECTIVE MATERIAL LOADING
We offer a great variety of loading systems for all the machines, dependent on the material, tube diameter and tube length. Tubes that have already been formed and with added components can also be loaded without any issues. The appropriate orientation is therefore very important, when loading the tube into the production cell. External workpieces, such as nuts, flanges, supporting sleeves can be added to the system in a controlled manner and included in any subsequent processing steps. A great variety of loading volumes is possible.
Powerful Software
Go directly from CAD to the tube bender with t-project tube bending software and upload functions. The virtual bending simulation determines exact bending timings and cutting lengths; it also tests tube geometries in advance for feasibility. Tube data and bending results are documented with accuracy and they can then be replicated 100%. Easy programming from the desk, fast estimating of new projects, collision testing before running the machine and direct upload of the tube bending sequence to tube bender.
